Because JD.com is more of a B2C platform, Taobao is a C2C platform!

Buying things on Taobao is cheap, and you have to look at the goods with a critical eye, which is equivalent to buying clothes and walking into the local wholesale market. This is the value provided by Taobao;

But if it is on JD.com, it is equivalent to walking into a more upscale shopping mall, where there are branded clothes.

Reasons why JD.com’s products are more expensive than Taobao:

1. Taobao’s platform is C2C, which means individual to individual. In the early days, it was defined as a platform for exchanging goods. JD.com’s nature is B2C, which means enterprise to enterprise. It has to pay taxes and issue invoices, so the price will be more expensive.

2. JD.com has quality inspection and is responsible for its products. Taobao does not have quality inspection, so the cost is naturally low and the price is cheaper.

3. JD.com’s logistics cost: JD.com’s logistics cost is very high, and these costs will be shared among the commodity city. The cost of Tmall and Taobao sellers is very low.

4. JD.com also has inventory costs, which are non-existent or very low for Taobao sellers. JD.com’s storage fees and management fees are ultimately passed on to consumers. Therefore, JD.com’s products, for the same product, will be more expensive than Taobao’s.

That’s because there are no activities. Pay more attention to activities before buying. There are flash sales at any time.
